To save the Earth from alien invaders and their giant monsters, Dr. Kishida does what any other red-blooded mad scientist would do: he builds a giant robot - ARIEL - the ultimate feminine fighting robot!
Unfortunately, his grand-daughters refuse to pilot it! Apparently, they've got more important things to do than becoming teenage super-heroes. Besides, how are you supposed to study for your college entrance exams while getting beaten-up in battle?
Fortunately for Dr. Kishida, things aren't too well for the invaders, either. According to their reports, the Earth was the perfect target: lush, peaceful, and relatively defenseless. Theoretically, the planet should've surrendered long ago. Now, the war is at a standstill, the dreaded Accounting Department is warning about the serious cost overruns, and the head of the home office has arrived from Galactic Headquarters to personally oversee operations. Has Headquarters decided to unleash, The Audit - or do they have something even more evil in mind?
The fate of the world rests upon two people: Aya Kishida, one of the doctor's granddaughters, who may have to give up prep school to pilot the mighty (and lovely) ARIEL; and a mysterious alien named Saber Starblast, who may have the power to defeat the invaders once and for all...

Where it came from
Ariel Visual Scebai: Saidai no Kiki was released in 1989 as part of the promotional material for the Ariel science fiction series. Produced by Movic, this visual companion serves as a collection of character designs, storyboards, and conceptual artwork intended to expand upon the lore established in the original light novels by Yuichi Sasamoto. The production aimed to satisfy the growing demand for behind-the-scenes content during the height of the Japanese original video animation boom, offering fans a deeper look into the creative process of the series' transition from page to screen.
The aesthetic of the collection reflects the late 1980s mechanical design sensibilities prominent in mecha anime, characterized by detailed line art and a focus on the structural complexity of the series' titular giant robot. The artwork, primarily handled by the studio’s internal design team, sought to emphasize a blend of humor and traditional science fiction tropes. Upon its release, it was received as a niche collector's piece, valued primarily by enthusiasts of the Ariel franchise for its documentation of the character and mecha development cycle.
